David would be my last choice of RFK's sons to enter politics. He had always been the "special" child, the one needing the most attention, somewhat like Bobby himself as a kid. David, unlike his father (whose parenting style was the exact opposite of his own parents, in part because he fell through the cracks and determined not to repeat the error), got the attention he needed but never showed any special talent. They were close, perhaps the closest RFK was to all his sons, but even before RFK's death David was getting in trouble at school and at one point got in trouble with the cops for throwing stones at passing cars.
